I personally like having a separate PM company for many reasons since it clearly separates staff and other resources into one bucket.

However, since you listed each property under separate activities, you may face limitations.

Install a separate underlayment layer even if the LVP you have already has underlayment glued on (it's usually too thin). 1/4" is the gap you want to leave for expansion during the hotter months.

As we try to catch up on those back utility bills with the tenant, they have applied part of a rent payment toward the utility catch-up even though the tenant made a separate payment to catch up on the utilities, as previously agreed and discussed with RHR specifically (an installment plan to pay the entire past-due amount back). 

Whatever you choose, make sure it is kept separate from personal finances.
